As a founding scholar of Tulsa Honor Academy, I grew alongside the school and am now a senior in the first graduating class.
If someone had told me that I would be senior class president, I would have laughed it off and immediately denied it because I never saw myself fit to be a leader. In group projects, I would delegate responsibilities when I would see that the team leaders were having a hard time. But never once was I the team leader, always a member with a separate task.
Being the class president of the first graduating class of a school is both exciting and challenging.
It is a great responsibility to represent the entire class and ensure that everyone’s voices are heard.
As the first graduating class, there is a lot of pressure to set a good example for future classes and establish traditions that will be carried on for years to come. It is a unique experience to be a part of the school’s history and to have a hand in shaping its future.
